PS4 Game With the Best Story

[Spectre456]

I'm a big fan of stories in games and I generally can't make myself finish most games if the story doesn't captivate me or at least interest me a bit. The best game released on PS4 so far in terms of story is The Last of Us in my opinion. From the opening sequence where everything happens and there's an unexpected incident(I'm trying to avoid spoilers) you could feel for Joel and from that moment you knew it was going to be a great ride.

There might be games with better stories in this console, most likely a lot are to come soon. But what do you think is the game with the best story so far?

I don't think there's much competition to the Last of Us right now. The story was brilliant even on the PS3 where there are a ton of great games with amazing story. The PS4 is still fairly new and there aren't many games out right now with a memorable story other than The Last of Us. I'd say maybe Second Son a close second but the story isn't anything to shout about.

Agreed, but theres a few on the way atleast..

Yeah since the Last of Us is on PS4 now it's probably the king of the hill. I would bet on Bioshock Infinite but that's not for the PS4 so my bet is TLOU.

Another vote here for The Last Of Us. In my view, you'll struggle to find a better story than this when it comes to almost any other game that I can think of over the last twelve, possibly fourteen years. It's an absolute gem and something which really gripped me from start to finish. I was sad when it was all over and one of those games you wished had never ended.

The only game that will possibly pip it into first place (or certainly be very close behind it in second) will be Telltale Games 'The Walking Dead : Season 2' whenever that's released. This is also a real heavyweight when it comes to storytelling on a game. It's something Telltale specialise in and do extremely well.

Those are certainly the top two and by quite some margin. Nothing else that I've seen on the PS4 so far comes anywhere close to them – including Outlast, which I also rate highly.

.....The Last Of Us........It's an absolute gem and something which really gripped me from start to finish. I was sad when it was all over and one of those games you wished had never ended.

+1 to that. Was also sad it finally finished. While playing it you really do feel like you've travelled a long way by the time you get to the end.
The DLC Left Behind was also quite good,but to bad its very short

I really need to pick up a copy of this game ASAP!! Everything I have heard about this game along with the reviews have all been positive.
